Immune/natural killer cell treatment when TTC or pregnant (aka the 14th pred thread)

Evening all.

Sunny nooooooooooooo to the email! Trying is right try telling self we don't know their stories!
Hope it's your turn this month! Cycle 5 has a good ring to it!

Trying how you feeling?

Determined how are you today?

Hey rosA , hula and anyone I have missed.

First day back at work for me today since Christmas and it came as a shock! We didn't have new pregnancy news but receptionist is pregnant but I am very happy for her 2 mc and her life has been tough since child hood so got to be pleased she has something wonderful to look forward too.

However engagements galore another thing I long for lol! No cure for a man that doesn't wish for marriage though hey? X

Hula thanks for ur advice yest. U are talking the voice of reason. For
Some reason when applied to
Me I seem to think the worst. But yes def not in ivf territory (yet!). I would be saying the same to one of the girls on here I'm sure. Just can't believe forMyself!

How r u feeling today determined? Have u spoken to Louise about the recent chemical? Is af in full Force. I hope ur holding up ok x

ahh sorry sunny, so annoying...thank god it was on email! is the pred making you feel rough or are you sure its not a sign??? :)

Trying sorry to hear you got upset today...I hope you are feeling better this evening...I know its hard but try not to think of days/deadlines/milestones...I do it all the time but the better I am at not being sentimental the less sad I get. I know its so hard and you just want to be preggo but it will happen! keeping my fingers crossed for you guy xx

I had a binge day too yest! We all need them
Sometimes! Am on my diet as put on a few pounds over Xmas and figure it's not great for ttc.

I'm Hungry though! Must shift a few pounds this next few weeks. Are u back to slimming world? How many more so have u got to go? Hopefully this is ur last

I agree! Now when I see preg people I think - I don't actually know ur journey. They may have had multiple miscarriages, ivf , struggles ttc etc. it's so common just not discussed. Makes it lonely. And the only ones u hear about are the mega fertile ones who blink their eyes get preg and pop out babies left right and center (like my sil!)

Maybe it will be u this week!

It's so annoying isn't it! It's not their fault but so upsetting and I also hate that I feel that way twds them. I'm trying to go back to postive mode but I can't get back there.

Hope thinking of u, hope all is well x

Thanks guys. I haven't taken the pred this time! I will next month if I'm out. In just really worried as to why I haven't got preg yet. Had a little cry on way to work today :( it's coming up to 2 years since I started this journey and no closer.

I agree determined I wish I had my naviety back! I got preg so quick and the thought of miscarrying was only right at the back of my mind. Now look where I am.

I don't think I'll test early. I find it so disheartening seeing the bfn. I need to try stay postive. We DtD days 12.13.15. Ovulated 15. There's a chance...

Thanks Rosa and sorry you are out this cycle! Am feeling a bit better today (although from a pretty low place not sure how good that actually is...ha ha!) need to get my positivity head on that I had a few days ago before this all started.

Sometimes I wish I could go back to pre-ttc days when I didn't track and analyse anything, didn't take all the meds on certain days and spent stupid money. I know it will be worth it but sometimes I do feel like it gets right in the way!!

Try and keep your chin up trying ...I know its hard but I blame the pred...7dpo was always when I started to feel wretched on it! You are so close!

Sorry rosa that af came :(
We all seem to be struggling on here! Surely someone else will have some good new soon. Maybe sunny with her 3 eggs?
I'm feeling pretty pants to be honest :( day 6 po

Sorry Determined. It's so cruel to have hopes raised after all this and then taken away. We all now the roller coaster emotions.. And sometimes the low comes with no warning or any particular reason. You have to focus on the fact you can get pregnant. So it's one or both of - good sperm/ egg combo (it's a numbers game and it will happen) or the right immune balance (you're getting the best care, so again will happen).
I'm out again and asking same Qs but hoping the patience of a saint and doing the right things plus a big dose of luck will see me through when time is right. Hope you wake tomorrow feeling much better x

Ha ha thanks trying! Much appreciated!!

Roll on next round!! ;)

X

One last sneaky message!

I'm sorry determined. This journey is truely pants but it will work out along the way. Sorry lots of hugs x

Thanks ladies...yes got a v. Faint bfp (dh didnt believe me) that slowly got darker but then has stayed the same/got lighter which coincides with less boob tenderness and brown spotting. (Tmi). Not seeing anyone as after NHS appoint they said there was nothing they will do so there is no point. I will contact Dr S office and ask for a follow up now as I got further along when I had no treatment!! Plus I can't afford £400+ for intralipids for chemicals/v.earlys! I wasn't on SO this month (didn't believe I could get preg without either so or herbs so a massive shock! Could SO effects stay in your system?

I feel like we need more tests...am paranoid we aren't compatible...

Not sure I have the energy for it anymore all too upsetting!

Hope you all have a nice sleep despite the pred and feel better in the morning!

Xxx

Determined - so sorry about the chemical.
Re the spirulina i m a bit random about how much, usually one or two teaspoon to juice but this was the study:
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/15857205/
My acupuncturist does stuff to clear heat since the immune diag and now does some new needles on my lower back and right down to my pelvic bones on my bum !

Night trying.

Thank you all for your support, really don't know what I would do with out you lovelies x

Thanks hula I'm sure ur right!
DH says no more mumsnet for tonight as I'm going mad looking up all sorts!
Speak to u all tmrw
Hope u ok determined x

Determind bless you,

Sorry to see your news!

Thank You for your response to my feelings at present, so kind of you amidst your sadness.

Have you seen anyone regards the chemical? X

ooooo interesting you have found the same iggi.

Trying don t panic about needing ivf i m sure you re not it that territory yet. It took me 18mns to conceive my son at 35, all unexplained (other than low amh). Then at 38, while breastfeeding i concieved my loss within 6 months (and only the last two of those had a normal lp). Now its 8mns post m/c and nothing yet so it does seem to vary greatly even in the same person.

The fact you ve got pregnant before and you re eggs will be good quality at only 30 that i m sure it ll happen for you again soon and with the immune treatment fingers crossed you ll have a very good chance it will stick.
